The following is an excerpt from an
extra which the Rawlins Tribune, with
commendable enterprise, issued upon the
arrival of Deputy Sheriff Smalley and
Chas. Leroy in the sage brush city:
Feeling ran very high at Cheyenne when
Sterrv was brought back, and we should
not be surprised to learn of the summary
hanging Of Leroy, the alder and abetter
OF Mccoy, by an enraged public sentiment
upon his arrival to-day in Cheyenne.
The only unusual feeling observable
upon the return of Sterry was one of re-
gret that it was not Mccoy or Jones, and
about the same sentiment prevailed upon
the arrival of Leroy last week. The only
culprits liable to lynching in this progress
sive community are newspaper men who
attempt to place a blot upon its reputa-
ton for lawfulness, wen handed justice,
enterprise and hospitality.

WILL BE A COWBOY.
Little Joe Dapita AspIres to Ride the
Range.


Joe Dapita, the incorrigable youngster
detained at the Laramie county jail,
must have perused several hundred vel,
low covered volumes prior to his advent
in Cheyenne. The boy is held as a wit
ness, and upon his release will receive
more money han he imagines is con
tanned in the vaults of the United States
treasury. The other day some one asked
Joe how he intended to disburse his I'M
willingly acquired wealth. The reply was
one to be expected from a boy domiciled
for several months with a gang of the
most disreputable characters ever congre
gated in one jail.
The little mouth. opened in a joyous
smile, the red lips parted and the white
teethashoneI as a curse preceded the de-
claration hat he would purchase "a six.
shooter, a pair Of snaps, saddle and a
pony and be a cowboy like Bill Mccoy"
Joe declares that after his treasury
is exhausted, he will crawl into houses
and steal jewelry, like Jones'" The boys
parents reside in Omaha, but it is appar-
ent that they are not very so~licitous about
the welfare of the child. 1t seems very
uncharitablc to allow this poor outcast to
resume tramp liz" again. He is manly,
bright, intelligent and truthful, and were
profanity and vagabondage unknown,
would be regarded a model boy.

THE REVIVAL.
Meetings at Y. NJ. C.. A. Hall Every
Night This Week.

The union meeting at Y. NJ. G. A
hall Sunday evening was a most success
full affair viewed from all sides. The at
tendence was large and composed of
many strangers in addition to the congre-
cations of the various churches represen-
ted by pastors seated on the stage. 1t is
estimated that fully 500 people were pre-
sent, at any rate the spacious hall was
filled to OVERLOOKING. The music, under
the leadership of Prof. Pasmore, was ex-
cellent. Rev. Mr.. Fields sermon was an
able effort directed specially to young
men. Pastors Williams, Stearns and
RAIDER assisted in the exercises. At the
conclusion of the discourse by the Pres
bvterian minister the Methodist clergy
man made an appeal to the uncon-
verted urging them to embrace reli
gion and declare for the Lord. Quite, a
number responded.
The services last evening were well at
tended and several converts enlisted.
Rev. DR.. Williams, of the Congrega-
tional church preached an eloquent ser
mon.
Rev. DIR. Stearns, the new Baptist di-
vine, will deliver the sermon this evening.
All are cordially invited to attend.
The ministers have entered upon the
crusade thoroughly equipped. The large
hall has been engaged for every night this
week. A choir composed of vocalists
selected from the choirs of the various
churches will lead the singing. Leaflets
containing a large number of popular
hymns are scattered through the audi
forum, and the hall comfortably heated.
1t is hoped that the promoters of these
meetings will be satisfied at the re-
suits attained when the series is con
cluded.

Book, a switchman who fell from the top
OF a box car here about IL O'Clock last
night died early this evening from the
effects of his injuries, in great agony. The
nature of the results of the terrible fall

ment. While getting off his horse the
animal took fright while Mr.. Mcfarland

Duck and Rawley, two violators of mil
itary discipline confined in the guard
house at Fort Russell, were taken to the

A large and generous audience greeted
Prof. Bartholomew and his troupe of
performing horses at the opera house last
night.
The entertainment was even better than
had been promised. The professor is
doubtlessly the best horse trainer who
ever exhibited in this country. The
beautiful and intelligent animals appeared
upon the stage without requirement and
performed miraculous feats at a word OF
command. Admirers of horse flesh in
the audience went into raptures over the
cleverness of the equines, averring that
they possessed reasoning powers. The
statuary grouping, court scene, jumping
and concluding battle and tableaux were
GROWING features. Change of programme
this evening.

We present to our readers to-day an
admirable picture of the beautiful in
terror of the st. James a. M. E. church
which will be dedicated to the worship
of God tomorrow.
The beautiful building is of frame
75x38, the plan being in the form of a
Latin Cross. The. basement will be used

sign is by Walter Ife, architect, after
the early English Gothic style of archi-
lecture The auditorium is finished
in natural wood with very handsome
open timbsred roof supported on sever
al richly moulded principles, pannelled
in tracery, which terminate some three
feet below the wall plate with delicately
turned corbels. It has three exits. The
building is heated by a furnace. The
walls are elegantly decorated and fres-
coed in stencil work. The furnishings
are in keeping with the general design,
being the same style of architecture car
ried out in the seating, pulpit, altar rail-
ing etc. tits the intention. to add to
the already pleasing effect of the exter-
Tor by building 9 tower and spire. The
whole completed will present church

Is North Nav street. Among the visi-
tors present were Misses Wilkinson,
Lizzie R. Pulpress, Fannie Montague ),
of Allegheny City, Pa; and Florence
Yeizer, Of Frankfort, KY.
The article in thu, World stating that
Mr.. F. Shoecraft was married on the
10Th of October was without foundation.
He was seen by a reporter of the Plain
dealer Saturday, and said: IT am not
married and haven't thought Of such,
and cannot see why the World would
publish such falsehood.
W Horton, Colored, sleeping-car
porter broke into AL. Jones' barber
shop, 46S State street, Tuesday morn
ing, vowing vengeance against Joe
Campbell, one OF the BARRIERS. Horton
hurled a rock at his enemy but missed
him and then drew a 3S-calibre revolt
yer and blazed away several times but
with no effect on Campbell. The occu-
pants Of the chairs jumped at the
sound of the shots and several were cut
quite badly by the razors with which
they were being shaved. One of the
bullets struck John Dawson. one of the

Among the odd and interesting iten

Among the odd and interesting items
in an exchange we found the following:
Recently in London there was an
extraordinary shaving match decided
against time. Teddy Wick, the champ
ion bal Der, being backed to shave 80
persons in 80 minutes for els a side.
He actually shaved n in SO minutes and
So SECONDS and thus wonthe stakes. In
the first quarter of an hour he disposed
of q men, in the second IA, in the third
10, and in the last IA minutes and So
seconds he put on a "spurt" and finish
ed of 49,"
IF this be fact we must come to the
conclusion that though we consider our
selves $50 me" when it comes to "ton-
serial artists we must admit that the
professors on the other side of the pond
best ours considerably; as it generally
takes them from five to sixty minutes to
scrape chin.
